For those of you not familiar with the dramatis personae of the militia movement, "Mark" is Mark Koernke, and "Linda" is Linda Thompson -- tallpaul] 'Twas the night before Christmas, and in the condominium Not a patriot was stirring, not even a Davidian. The duffels were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that Mark from Michigan soon would be there; The troops were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of Ruby Ridge danced in their heads; And Linda in her camos and I in my helmet, Had just settled down to sleep for a bit, When out on the lawn there arose such a clamor, I grabbed a revolver and pulled back the hammer. Away to the window I flew to defend My home from the ravenous liberal fiends. The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow Made it seem like the body of Janet Reno. When, what through my wandering scope should appear, But a miniature troop-carrier, complete with full gear, With a fatigue-clad driver, so lively and sharp, I knew 'twas from Michigan--the guy they called Mark. More rapid than jack-booted thugs did he come, And he ranted and raved and at the mouth he did foam. "Now, U.N.! Now, Clinton! Now Brady and Schroeder! "On, Boutros! On, Hillary! On, New World Order! To the compound at Waco! To the OKC faxes! Now dash away! dash away, all income taxes!" Like liberals, wanting to have one-world rule, At the thought of banning our guns do so drool, So too did Mr. Koernke drive to our door Avoiding the land mines I'd placed there before. And then, in a twinkling, I saw that he'd drawn A Chinese assault weapon right there on my lawn. As I readied a grenade and was turning around, With a fiery cascade, he shot my door down. He was dressed all in green from his cap to his trousers And his clothes were all tarnished with reloading powder. Three Sam Brownes full of ammo were slung on his back, And he looked like Attila getting ready to sack. His eyes--how they twinkled! His mustache how Nazi! His cheeks were like roses, his demeanor so ROTC! His droll little mouth was all set to grin As if a microchip had been emplanted within. The stock of his AK he gripped tight with care As a thin whisp of smoke rose from it through the air. He had a broad face and a little round belly, That shook, when his videos were played on the telly. He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old sort, The kind that would kill government agents for sport. A wink of his eye and a twist of his hairs Suggested to me there was no light on upstairs. He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work And rearmed all our weapons; then turned with a jerk, And laying his finger on his safety release, He reentered the confines of his great armored beast. He turned on the engine and away did he speed, Following street signs that had been secretly keyed. But I heard him exclaim, ere he turned round the corner, "God bless the Republic, and Death to the New World Order!" -------------------------------------------------------------------------- THREE MORE FAR-RIGHTISTS OFF TO JAIL Intimidation results in 10-year prison term Milwaukee Journal Sentinel 14 Dec 00 WEST BEND -- Andrew Joseph Schneider, 64, will spend 10 years in prison after being sentenced on 10 counts of filing bogus papers to intimidate local officials. Schneider could have been sentenced to 50 years in prison after being convicted in October by a Washington County jury that deliberated just 30 minutes. The Wisconsin Department of Justice handled the prosecution. - - - - - Two Convicted Of Fraud Mark Pazniokas (Hartford Courant) 14 Dec 00 A down-on-his-luck former securities broker and the former preacher he hired to sell small investors his secret path to riches were convicted Wednesday of defrauding clients from all walks of life who eagerly gave them nearly $5 million. Richard S. Markey, 44, of Simsbury, a former broker who professed to run an international investment firm from his home, was convicted in U.S. District Court in Hartford of conspiracy, wire fraud and mail fraud. Joseph W. Simpson, 50, a former preacher who was a Florida fugitive living in Canada last year while he hosted telephone sales conferences selling Markey's scheme, was convicted of conspiracy and mail fraud. After five weeks of testimony and two days of deliberation, a jury of nine women and three men returned guilty verdicts on every count of an 18-count indictment. The verdicts appeared to jolt Markey, who shook his head as the first of the verdicts was read aloud. Simpson, who frequently voiced anti- government rhetoric as he represented himself during the trial, smiled enigmatically. In just three months last year, Markey and Simpson raised $4.8 million from investors across the country by promising astronomical returns of at least 70 percent a month on deals vaguely described as "trades'' and "international debentures." Checks and money orders, most for just $250 and others for as much as a couple of thousand dollars, poured into a private mailbox Markey rented at Mailboxes, Etc. of Simsbury in the name of Marquis International Holdings. Markey and Simpson each had extensive experience in so-called multi-level marketing schemes, in which customers can earn a commission by selling their friends on the venture. Such schemes have proliferated on the Internet, promising easy riches. The government said investors had no way of knowing that Simpson, who told early investors their accounts had already grown dramatically, actually was a fugitive wanted in Florida for violating the terms of supervised release. Simpson had prior convictions for money-laundering, credit-card fraud and escape. Markey, the supposed genius who had discovered how to open the investment secrets of the super-rich to the little guy, had been accused of stealing client funds while a broker in Florida a decade ago. In recent years he had struggled financially, losing money on a venture selling telephone calling cards. Then, starting in April 1999, a torrent of checks began flowing to Marquis International, a company Markey ran from a folding table in his garage. Instead of investing as promised, Markey diverted much of the money into his own accounts. He shipped $1.25 million to an overseas trust account in the names of himself, his wife and two sons. The government said Markey engaged in no trades of any kind. As for the "international debentures," a fraud expert testified that no such investment instrument exists. Responding to complaints that the telephone venture was a scam, postal inspectors and the FBI discovered last spring that Markey's main business was selling non-existent investments. State banking officials also received complaints. Federal investigators were able to intercept about $2 million in checks and money orders and they also obtained a court order freezing accounts worth $1.97 million. Judge Alvin W. Thompson scheduled sentencing for March 5. Each count is punishable by a maximum of five years in prison, though Markey likely faces about six years in prison under federal guidelines. Simpson, with his criminal record, could face more than 10 years. Assistant U.S. Attorney James Genco asked Thompson to immediately revoke Markey's bail, but the judge delayed a decision until Friday. Genco said Markey's anti-government rhetoric - he calls himself a "sovereign," as does Simpson, and does not recognize the court's authority - makes him a flight risk. Jeremiah Donovan, who represents Markey, said his client is devoted to his two sons, aged 12 and 14, and would not flee. Markey, who divorced earlier this year, has been earning a living doing chores at a motel where he is staying and by delivering newspapers. Simpson already is in custody, serving a three-year sentence for violating the terms of his supervised release. Aside from the verdict, there was another indication that Simpson made a poor impression on the jury while acting simultaneously as defendant, witness and attorney. One juror sent Thompson a note asking if Simpson possessed a list of the jurors' names, and, if so, could it be returned. Simpson, who never stopped smiling at the jurors Wednesday, told the judge he would surrender the jury list. He said, "I've got no problem with that." -------------------------------------------------------------------------- REAL POLITICAL CORRECTNESS: It's from the rightwing authoritarians and always has been Atheist Director Wins As Federal Circuit Court Strikes Ten Commandments Monument In Indiana AA News 13 Dec 00 Unconstitutional displays of the Ten Commandments on public property in Indiana may be coming down, thanks in part to the efforts of Mike Suetkamp, attorney Ken Falk, and the U.S. Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals. Earlier today, a three-judge panel ruled that a monument of the Judeo- Christian Decalogue in front of the Elkhart, Indiana municipal building violated the Establishment clause separation of church and state. The justices found that shabby attempts to declare the religious monument a secular memorial failed, and they ordered the case remanded "for proceedings in conformity with this opinion." That could mean that the Commandments display may have to be removed or relocated. Mr. Suetkamp, Indiana State Director for American Atheists, was pleased with the decision and told AANEWS that it could have consequences elsewhere. "There are several suits throughout the state dealing with Ten Commandment displays on government property, including the one on the grounds of the state capitol," Suetkamp said. "This could have an important impact in having these unconstitutional religious symbols removed." "It's been worth the fight," Suetkamp added. He expressed praise for Ken Falk, ACLU attorney who has pursued the case since the initial filing. Today's ruling is another major setback for such unconstitutional displays on public property. Early last month, U.S. District Judge Sarah Barker Evans ordered a 9-1/2 ton granite Ten Commandments monument removed from the courthouse lawn in Lawrence County, Indiana. That monument was eventually to be placed in front of the state capitol building; but with today's Circuit Court finding, all such displays are in possible jeopardy. The good news from the Court of Appeals reversed a December, 1999 ruling by U.S. District Judge Allen Sharp who had ruled that the Elkhart Commandments monument passed constitutional scrutiny. Sharp opined that while the text of the Ten Commandments dominated the stone cenotaph, "it cannot be said that the message of the monument is exclusively religious," and that a neutral observer would not necessarily believe that the government was endorsing or promoting religious belief. Commandment Display A Tinseltown Marquee? Like many other Ten Commandments displays throughout the country which until recently were found in parks or in front of municipal and county buildings, the Elkhart monument was a donation from the Fraternal Order of Eagles. While intending to promote religiosity and good citizenship, though, the FOE was, in fact, including itself in a possible scheme hatched by a Minnesota juvenile court judge named E. J. Ruegemer, and Hollywood mogul Cecil B. DeMille. Circuit Court documents note that over half-a-century ago, Ruegemer, "Disheartened by the growing number of youths in trouble ... sought to provide them with a common code of conduct," and founded a Youth Guidance Program. He originally intended to post paper copies of the Ten Commandments in juvenile courts, first in Minnesota and then across the country. Toward that end, he contacted the FOE service organization, which initially rejected the idea fearing that "the program might seem coercive or sectarian." "In response to these concerns," noted the Circuit Court, "representatives of Judaism, Protestantism and Catholicism developed what the individuals involved believed to be a nonsectarian version of the Ten Commandments because it could not be identified with any one religious group." With this, the Fraternal Order of Eagles endorsed Ruegemer's plan. Enter Hollywood titan Cecil B. DeMille (1881-1959), producer of such blockbuster films as "The Plainsman," "The Buccaneer,""Cleopatra" and, of course, a string of religion themed hits including "The Ten Commandments," "King of Kings," and "Sign of the Cross." Just as the "Youth Guidance Program" was getting started, DeMille coincidentally was working on "The Ten Commandments," and suggested that rather than settling for mere paper copies of the Decalogue, that bronze plaques might be more suitable and enduring. Ruegemer then upped the ante by proposing that the Commandments be written on granite, and DeMille agreed. Two Minnesota granite companies were then put to work stamping out Ten Commandments monuments for display throughout the country, and financed by the FOE. In 1958, the Elkhart, Indiana chapter of the Fraternal Order of Eagles donated its version of the Commandments to the City. It is ironic that DeMille, while appearing to purchase a degree of social respectability by endorsing a religious promotion, had for years been a strong opponent of sectarian-government censorship. His 1932 epic "Sign of the Cross," described as a "sexy, bloody Roman-versus Christians" production, was considered the controversial films that led to the establishment of the Roman Catholic run Legion of Decency. For nearly three decades, the Legion exercised a shocking amount of control over the content of Hollywood films. Two decades after "Sign of the Cross," DeMille was once again in trouble with censors due to his spectacular production, "The Greatest Show on Earth," featuring Betty Hutton, Dorothy Lamont and Gloria Grahame, along with screen idols Charlton Heston and Jimmy Stewart. Although it passed muster with the Hollywood Production Code Office, "The Greatest Show on Earth" earned a B-rating (objectionable for all) from the Legion. Ten Commandments displays proliferated across the nation during a crucial time in American history; the country was in the midst of the "cold war," a period when public professions of religiosity were emblematic of the cultural and military confrontation with "Godless communism." President Eisenhower instituted a round of "prayer breakfasts" and other religious events at the White House. In Congress, federal legislators responded by declaring "In God We Trust" as America's national motto, discarding the earlier and secular Latin slogan, "E Pluribus Unum" or "out of many, one." The new "God motto" was inserted onto the nation's currency, and included in the Pledge of Allegiance. By 1956, DeMille was no longer a confrontationalist who challenged the authority of Hollywood censors and Church bluenoses. His remake of "The Ten Commandments" earned approval from the Legion of Decency, and generated more than $43 in box office profits. Elkhart Embraces Its New Religious Shine Back in Elkhart, the May 31, 1958 edition of the local "Elkhart Truth" newspaper covered the dedication of the new monument, noting the participation of local government officials, lodge members from the FOE, the pastor of the neighborhood Catholic church, the outgoing president of the Elkhart Ministerial Association, and a rabbi from the Temple Israel. The monument was position on the lawn in front of the city's Municipal Building, which houses offices for the mayor, prosecutor, and the Common Council. In other areas of the building's lot were a Revolution War Monument and the Freedom Monument honoring war dead. Above the "nonsectarian" rendition of the Commandments were two small tablets with ancient Hebrew script. Other decorations included a bas relief of the American Eagle, flag, two small Stars of David and floral patterns. In addition, two Greek letters, Chi and Rho were superimposed on one another as a symbol representing Christ. No Challenge Until 1998 No residents bothered to challenge the constitutionality of the display until 1998, when the city was threatened with a law suit if it did not remove the monument. On May 4, the Common Council responded with a resolution "regarding the display of the Ten Commandments on public property," which consisted of the usual obfuscation and denial. The resolution discussed the "historical and cultural" significance of the Commandments, and their "significant impact on the development of the fundamental legal principles of Western Civilization." In effect, the Council had embarked on a strategy of attempting to declare the monument secular and constitutional by simple fiat. A District Court agreed, suggesting that the monument had a secular purpose in that it promoted morality in youth. The court also suggested that the monument included many religious symbols (and thus did not promote a specific religion) and was part of a larger collection of historical and cultural displays such as the war monuments. All of this, however, was reversed by today's victory in the Circuit Court. From The Court... * "As a starting point, we do not think it can be said that the Ten Commandments, standing by themselves, can be stripped of their religious, indeed sacred, significance and characterized as a moral or ethical document." * Discussing the fact that a frieze on the wall of the U.S. Supreme Court happens to depict Moses holding the Ten Commandments, the Circuit Court noted: "The frieze contains depictions of two other religious figures, Confucius and Mohammed, but also includes Caesar Augustus, William Blackstone, Napoleon Bonaparte, and John Marshall. Justice Stevens has stated that the placement of all of these historic figures together on the frieze signals a respect for great lawgivers, not great proselytizers..." * "Here, the record discloses no significant attempt by the City of Elkhart to present the text of the Ten Commandments in a way that might diminish its religious character ... The code chosen ... was a religious code that focuses not only on subjects that are the legitimate concerns of civil authorities, but also subjects that are beyond the ken of any government and that address directly the relationship of the individual human being and God. That the purpose was to endorse, through governmental sponsorship, a code of religious values is further established by the program of speakers at the dedication of the monument..." * Could the city "secularize" the Ten Commandments by fiat and decrees? The Circuit Court was skeptical, and noted: "Moreover, nothing in the subsequent history of the monument can be said to have in any way transformed that religious purpose. The City's resolution, issued on the eve of this litigation and proclaiming a secular purpose for the monument's presence by recognizing the historical and cultural significance of the Ten Commandments, ought to be accorded no more wait than the avowed secular legislative purpose articulated by the Kentucky legislature in Stone (STONE v. GRAHAM) ..." * "Even if we were to ignore the primary purpose behind displaying the Ten Commandments monument, we would have to conclude that this particular display has the primary or principal effect of advancing religion..." * Elkhart officials suggested that the monument was somehow "secularized" by the presence of the American Eagle and flag. The Court responded: "In this regard, the placement of the American Eagle gripping the national colors at the top of the monument hardly detracts from the message of endorsement (of religion); rather, it specifically links religion, or more specifically these two religions, and civil government..." * "Finally, we cannot say that the monument's acknowledgment of two religious traditions, rather than one, renders the situation before us in compliance with the strictures of the Constitution. 'The simultaneous endorsement of Judaism and Christianity is no less constitutionally infirm than the endorsement of Christianity alone'." (COUNTY OF ALLEGHENY, 492 U.S.) A Loophole? If no good deed goes unpunished, then courts are not always zealous in defending the civil liberties of Atheists, or a total separation of church and state. The Circuit Court decision leaves some options for the city, including replacement of the monument to another location, and other steps. "In making those decisions, Elkhart has the right and, indeed, the obligation to take into consideration the religious sensibilities of its people and to accommodate that aspect of its citizens' lives in any way that does not offend the strictures of the Establishment Clause..." The Court then quotes a controversial decision from ZORACH v. CLAUSEN (1952) where Supreme Court justices noted: "We are a religious people whose institutions presuppose a Supreme Being..." Elkhart, or any other municipality or state, could still attempt to "secularize" the Commandments by situating them as part of a larger display which, to a court, suggests honor of or emphasis on "history," "culture" or tradition. This ruse has worked in salvaging a number of religious seasonal displays on public property, including Christian nativity creches and Jewish menorahs. With enough plastic Santa Claus figures or reindeer, a nativity can be "secularized" if it is not the central part of a display. The same ploy may pass muster with a court. Religious supporters of Ten Commandments monuments, however, may not settle on such a workable strategy, or they may feel that it is one which trivializes and marginalizes their display. Mr. Suetkamp thinks that the City may appeal the case, grinding up more tax money in pursuit of its unconstitutional goals. "We'll go the distance, even if they do appeal," declared Mr. Suetkamp. "It's worth it ... it's the principle of the thing." -------------------------------------------------------------------------- RIGHTWING QUOTE OF THE WEEK: For those who believe that fascism is only a thing of the past From: "Alex Vange" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Newsgroups: alt.revisionism et al Subject: Re: The Extinction of the European race Date: 16 Dec 00 Who is White can only matter to those of us who have a plan concerning race. When the liberals wanted affirmative action they had to decide who was a White man, and therefore not entitled to special privaleges. In this case the liberals were the ones to decide who they wanted to call White. We are talking about having a White nation. We will be the ones to decide. There will be more than one nation. White nationalists in Scandinavian countries should have a higher standard on who is White than we would in the United States. The main goal of America is to destroy White civilization by mixing Whites with other races. Because of this it will get harder and harder to find White neigborhoods (good neighborhoods) to live in. We should preserve our race by having a homeland of our own. Our opponants say it is impossible to have White homeland because they say we can not determine who is White and who is not. Even though they can determine this easily enough when they want affirmitive action, they say that we can not. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ERROR: The last issue, labeled 4:100 (#495) was actually #496. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- WHAT'S WORTH CHECKING stories via <ftp://ftp.nyct.net/pub/users/tallpaul/publish/story7/> Mark Pazniokas (Hartford Courant), "Two Convicted Of Fraud," 14 Dec 00, "A down-on-his-luck former securities broker and the former preacher he hired to sell small investors his secret path to riches were convicted Wednesday of defrauding clients from all walks of life who eagerly gave them nearly $5 million." <1991.txt> James Carroll (Boston Globe), "Jesse Helms is Sparking a Real Constitutional Crisis," 5 Dec 00, "Worrying about a potential constitutional crisis coming out of Florida, we hardly noticed a creeping constitutional crisis that showed itself in New York last week.
